Monitoring the Modem
Once you have installed the Modem you can monitor the status of the ADSL connection by clicking on the
connection icon in your System Tray (usually at the bottom-right corner of screen - on the Task Bar). This will
open the DSLMON utility to aid you in tracking the activity and status of your
DSL-260I
ADSL USB modem.
Clicking on the icon will bring up the following window:
The bright green triangle to the right of “DSL Status” indicates a valid link. The word “OPERATIONAL”
indicates that the ADSL link is valid and functioning.
In addition, the two vertical bars indicate the relative data rates for transmission (uploading) and reception
(downloading).
The icon in your System Tray is red when the ADSL link is idle (no activity).
A red triangle and the word “IDLE” also appears on the DSLMON utility. This indicates that there is no
activity on the ADSL link or that the link is no longer valid (disconnected).
